Ju Ju started it, I heard, by out of the blue praising Rothlisberger. AB took that as a shot to him knowing him and Rothlisberger don't get along. I could be wrong but I think I heard Ju Ju posting a pic of him and Rothlisberger showing him love?

And Ju Ju IS NOT as talented as AB. Lol

The tweet about Ben with the pic of them is almost 2 weeks old (posted Mar 25th). Not sure that was the catalyst given the timeframes.

Huh? How is that "starting it"? He is just doing what AB was doing while he was still a Steeler.

Remember when Ben threw AB under the bus, but AB publicly praised Ben in response? How is praising your QB "out of the blue"?

I think you (and AB) are just reaching so you can scratch your "drama" itch...

Like most you seem not to like AB because he seems to be a Diva and a self centered trouble maker.... Maybe he is.

But with all the turmoil this past year in Pittsburgh with AB, Bell, Rothlisberger, the HC and missing the playoffs(which is rare for the Steelers) don't you think Ju Ju should have kept quiet and refrain from stirring the pot?

After him showing love to his QB, whether it was genuine or just a shot at AB of course AB was going to think it was a shot at him.

Like the radio guys said just play your game and keep your mouth shut and wait for when it's time for his contract to come up. The Steelers don't need Ju Ju or anyone else on the team to create more controversy.

That's why I like the culture we try to create in the Colt's locker room, The team should be all it's about. All of the finger pointing is childish and not very becoming of a grown man. Leave the drama to the nighttime tv soaps.

Ben may be a big part of the problem, but all JuJu is doing is being a good teammate. If AB interprets that as a slight towards him, then that's AB's problem and nobody else's.

Letting how you think others will react dictate how you act is not a productive mindset.

JuJu is moving forward like he should in a professional manner. AB is picking and scratching at his former teammates for no reason other than for attention, or because he's mentally unwell.

i dont think what they did was all that different, even if the intent was. ty said that to the tv media, brown posted on social media. lots of guys have called out teammates tbh

In a stretch of games where REALLY bad oline play was getting his QB killed, he called them out. His public call out was him acting on a frustration that an entire offensive unit couldn't do their job to protect their QB.

AB randomly blasted out a private DM that JuJu sent him while in college telling him how much he admires him and asked for any advice as a means of trying to make JuJu look bad. If it was in response to JuJu's photo with Ben, then AB truly is a narcissist who somehow made a picture not involving him, somehow all about him.

It seems that to you a call out is a call out is a call out, but intent is everything. There's a difference between putting some of your teammates on notice and attacking someone because you think the world revolves around you.

intent is not everything. the fact is they both called out team mates in the media

It all boils down too whether or not a QB wins SB's in most people's eyes. Not to all people but most. Until Luck wins a SB he will never get the respect he deserves from most people. Russell Wilson could retire tomorrow and almost everyone thinks he is a god because he won a SB which is funny. Wilson not only had one of the best defenses of all-time but his RB (Lynch) was the best offensive player on that team. Wilson is a very good QB but Luck is better, IMO anyway. Imagine if Luck would've been a Seahawk in 2012-2015? That team would've been unbeatable.

This response is not directed at you, but at the general thought line that is shared by many.
When I refer to Suh as not being a good guy, (I believe I balked at him being called a "good guy" in another thread), does not mean I think he is a bad guy. What I think he is, is a bad example for younger players. He is a bad example by his actions of going from team, to team. If he was a "team" guy, he would not be going to his 4th team in 6 years. Ballard is building a team/family culture. I don't see the benefit to the Colt team culture by his example, let alone the possibility that he might vocally encourage a younger star player to follow his pattern.
